The train ride was a little long, but worth it. Beautiful city with great history. Hop on Hop off bus was a wonderful way of seeing a great deal in one day.

I have done this trip three times, the train ride is wonderful (there are no trains where I live) I love wandering around Edinburgh
Tamara_Z –
The guide never showed up. We tried calling and I sent a email. We were waiting for guided since 0600. We called numerous time and works from the train did as well. This was my little sister first time in Europe. Very disappointed she didn’t get the proper experience.
Oriana_M –
The description, the overview and the email confirmation all list as train ride, castle tour and hop on/off bus EXCEPT for this price it actually doesn’t include the bus portion. They tell you later you have to buy that extra. I priced out the train and castle separate and this tour is at a huge profit for them to not include what it shows in three places. I tried to communicate with the tour company and they argue they are right and won’t issue a credit back for the bus. They won’t change the destruction, overview and confirmation email either. Do yourself a favor and take the train without this company and get your castle tickets online. You’ll save money and a huge disappointment.

The booking said that I couldn’t pre print my tickets, and that they would be provided by someone at the train station the morning of the trip. I left the US and went to the UK. After I was there, I got a message stating that they decided that someone wouldn’t be there and they had sent the tickets. I didn’t recieve them. I let the company know that I didn’t get the tickets. They said they sent them again, however, I never recieved them. I even went to the train station the morning of the trip just in case someone was there, but there wasn’t anyone. I spent a whole lot of money on a trip that I didn’t get to take because I never recieved the tickets. There was no refund.
Donny_G –
The train being late and the Hop On Hop Off bus not going to the Royal Mile and other stops.
Really a lot of money for only getting to go to the castle.
Diana_G –
We loved the train ride to Edinburgh seeing all the beautiful countryside. The food was good and the attendants took good care of us.
Ann_J –
Edinburgh and the castle was great, but all trains returning to London were canceled or delayed. We had members of our party who had prescription medicine back in London so it was critical that we return and we had to push our way on to the last train.
We never received any messages to let us know what was happening or what we should do. The kindness of a couple station workers is the only reason we made it back to London 5 hours later than scheduled.
Lynn_M –
This was surprisingly a very pleasant day trip, we highly recommend it, hope the rail is brought up to current technology where it doesnt buckle under extreme heat.
Dennis_H –
The hop on hop off bus company was not operating that day so we had to purchase tickets ourselves with another bus company
Adrian_V –
For the most part the trip was good value, but the HOHO Bus experience was terrible. The HOHO Bus industry as a whole needs to get back to Pre-COVID standards and remember the Traveler is the only reason they are still in business

PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS EXCURSION! This was the single worse excursion Because of the tour operator. They failed to provide the trip, then refused to issue a refund! There is no communication! I received an e-mail days before we left the US to go to London stating that the train could may not have tickets. I emailed twice and called once trying to find out if I needed to book on my own, but got no return call or replies ti my email. On my own, I book train tickets as a back-up. 3 days before the excursion that we were fine and they were able to secure train tickets. I canceled the tickets we purchased. The night before our excursion, I received a text from Viator with a link to download. That link provided instructions on our to secure our tickets. It instructed us to arrive at Kings across for 630 for a 703am train departure, and that tickets would be available at the redemption center. We checked the departure board and there were no departures scheduled for this time. Only a 730 and an 830- red flag#1.
We arrived at the train depot at 620 and could not find a redemption center or a tour operator. We went to the ticket counter and they could not help us and instructed at typically this tour company gathered around the information center. He suggested that we wait in that area. We waited until 640, still no one! We called the number on our downloaded voucher (Viator). The representative attempted to help, but he finally said he couldn’t help us and gave us another number to call, but they didn’t open until 7. I explained our trip was scheduled to leave at 703, but he was still unable to assist.
At this point a train station employee arrived at the information center, but she was unable to assist because she had never heard of a redemption center.
At 700 we called the 2nd number provided. That representative could not help us, she just kept telling us to report to the redemption center at kings cross. I even gave the phone to the train station information desk to figure out where she was talking about., but no success because there is no redemption center, not was there a representative from the tour company. The Viator rep agreed at this point we should request a refund. She put in a request for a refund.
At 725, We decided to spend another $700 for tickets on our own rather than miss out on the Scotland trip all together. Once on the train, I submitted a refund request.
This request was denied, so I called the explain what happened. Again, the viator rep agreed that we should be issued a refund so she submitted another request to refund from the tour company. This morning I received a second denial. The tour company claims they sent the tickets via email 1 week before the trip. This is not true. I have searched my emails, junk files, etc – nothing from them at all. Only communication was from viator described above.
We have now paid for this trip 3 times. It’s a lovely trip and worth doing, but please book directly through LNER. Download the app and buy your own tickets, the hop on hop off station is very near to the train depot when you depart.
Again….PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS TRIP! YOU WILL REGRET IT! Viator should remove it from their offerings, it is not up to par with their other excursions!

The Edinburgh Castle was amazing! Hop on and Hop off tour was great. We saw the North Sea from the train.

For a self guided tour, I was provided with an abundance of useful information that made me feel safe and secure on what each step on this journey that I got to choose myself in what direction and what order I went in. Edinburgh is a beautiful city, filled with character. An awesome value and experience. Thank you!

They didn’t send me a link for my Castle tickets. It took me over 1 hour to find the right person who was finally able to find my name and give me a ticket. It was super embarrassing and a huge waste of my already limited time. Oh also, they booked my train tickets wrong too. Had someone try to take my seat in one of the stations. I am autistic and I must say, it was HELL.
Chris_L –

There was a communication mixup on my part. The rail attendant helped us get in touch with Viator. The Viator agent corrected MY MISTAKE, with no problem, and rerouted us to Edinburgh with only a one hour loss to the planned day. I have told this adventure to AAA, and to my sister who currently has an activity planned with Viator . CUSTOMER SERVICE was EXCELLENT!!!
LTodd_H –
Edinburgh Castle was wonderful, but the trip was a bit rushed. The castle took at least 2 hours, it was easier to walk around than catch the bus.

Lots of fun, very convenient. Evan Evan’s is always a win. First class was a great way to knock out breakfast, commute and a nice nap in comfortable seats
